By day, rokurokubi appear to be ordinary women. By night, however, their bodies sleep while their necks stretch to incredible lengths and roam around freely. Sometimes their heads attack small animals; sometimes they lick up lamp oil with their long tongues; and sometimes they just cause mischief by scaring nearby people.  Unlike most yōkai which are born as monsters, rokurokubi and their close relatives nukekubi are former humans transformed by a curse resulting from some evil or misdeed. Perhaps they sinned against the gods or nature, or perhaps they were unfaithful to their husbands. In many cases, their husbands or fathers actually committed the sin.
